Madonna is stripping down to her lingerie again, this time to promote her newest beauty collaboration.
The 68-year-old Queen of Pop posted a series of 18 photos on Instagram on Oct. 27 to promote her candle collaboration with trendy fragrance brand Boy Smells.
In the first photo, Madonna glares at the camera from the ground, wearing a leather coat and fishnet tights.

In the second photo, Madonna sits atop speakers wearing a lavender corset, a skin-tight semi-sheer top, and bedazzled fingerless gloves. She poses with a candle placed strategically between her open legs, wearing only lavender panties, nude fishnet tights, and thigh-high socks.
The Grammy winner’s look was accessorized with sunglasses, a purple statement necklace, and sparkling heels.

Madonna captioned the post “Mes péchés sont mon sauveur……. 🩷💜 @boy__smells,” which translates to “My sins are my savior.”
Her collaboration with Boy Smells includes two $48 candles.
One is named “Like a Prayer,” which features a previously unseen photo of Madonna in 1989, taken by Herb Ritts. In the photo, she wears a cross pendant and a purple shirt slipping off one shoulder. Her black hair is blowing in the wind.
The scent is described as “wood, smoke, and sheer magnetism” and as feeling like “submitting to pleasure.”

The other candle has a more recent photo of Madonna lying on a bed next to a flower bouquet against a pink backdrop.
The candle is named “Confessions,” inspired by her 15th studio album, Confessions II, released in July 2026.
The website describes the scent as “a rose with a pulse” and as feeling like “love without words.”

Madonna’s poses caused some chatter in the comments.
Goodfellas actress Debi Mazar, 62, joked that she hoped Madonna didn’t create a “vagina candle,” referencing Goop founder Gwyneth Paltrow’s infamous 2020 candle.
